Back from My B-Pic Shoot

mycicybride · September 2009

OMG! Ladies, you have to get b-pix done. The shoot was so much fun. I highly recommend Miranda from In the Grain and Swank Studios. Miranda knew exactly what she wanted me to do at all times. She was more than focused...she was amazing. Swank is a photographers playland. I encourage all my RDU knotties to consider the space. They provided extras like shoes, jewelry, feather hair clips, etc. The amenities totally upgraded me. I even took a topless shot, y'all...I felt that confident.Cicy

I am working on a blog post of tips to post once I get a teaser pic. Here are a few tips:1. Be open to doing whatever your photographer has in mind for you. <Be able to take direction>2. Have some theme music.3. Hire an MUA who has hair stylist capabilities cuz your hair may need to be refreshed. Bring a flat iron.4. Bring a girlfriend as your hype girl.5. Wear high heels that are chunky stacked in the front. They look much better than regular stilettos.6. Take a ton of props and accessories if they are not available to you.7. Tweeze, wax, and shave thoroughly.8. Tuck that tummy, arch that back, pout, wink, raise one eye-brow.9. Do something different with your hair. I straightened mine. I usually wear it curly.10. Become flexible. I hate I wasn't flexible enough to do one pose but we improvised.11. Wear eyelashesHope this helps....
